Beautiful old pub! Stopped here after a hike & it was fascinating inside, plenty of locals, of course a lot of tourists (as I was!) But I'd love to come back here sometime & go there for the evening, it just looks like it gets a bit loose!

This is a beautiful little hill with a trig pointed summit, great views out over the Pembrokeshire coastline, and an Iron Age fort. There is also a great car park at the bottom of the hill and a good footpath to its rocky top. A 20 minute trip will see you up and down. It was cold today, but on a sunny day it would be a heavenly picnic spot.

Visit this interesting historical site & see how Porthgain used to be

Porthgain, a small coastal village in Pembrokeshire, became an industrial hub in the 19th and early 20th centuries. The quarrying activities in Porthgain primarily focused on slate and later on roadstone. The harbour, constructed in 1851, was essential for exporting slate from nearby quarries. Initially, slate was transported to the harbour by horse-drawn tramways and later by steam-powered machinery. By the late 19th century, the industry expanded to include brickmaking using slate waste. The demand for roadstone led to the development of steam-powered crushers and large storage hoppers, which are still visible today. Despite its industrial success, the Great Depression in the inter-war period led to a decline in trade, and by 1931, the quarrying activities had ceased. Today, Porthgain is a conservation area, preserving its rich industrial heritage and attracting visitors to its historical sites and scenic beauty

Porthgain is known for its picturesque harbour and rich industrial history. The village was once a bustling industrial port in the early 1900s, primarily involved in the export of slate, bricks, and crushed roadstone. Quarry History: • Slate Quarrying: Slate was the primary industry in Porthgain from around 1850 to 1910. The slate was quarried from nearby locations like Abereiddi and Trwynllwyd and transported to Porthgain via a tramway. • Brickmaking: From 1889 to 1912, bricks were manufactured using waste from the slate operations. The large brick hoppers that dominate the harbour today were used to store crushed dolerite before shipment. • Roadstone Production: After the decline of the slate industry, Porthgain turned to producing crushed roadstone from 1889 until 1931. Today, Porthgain is a conservation area, attracting visitors with its historical charm, scenic views, and local seafood. The harbour remains active, primarily serving local fishermen and recreational boaters.

Popular pub for young and old with delicious food. For fans of Game of Thrones: Jerome Flynn also stops here when he is in the area.

Remnants from a time gone by then ships used to be loaded with quarried materials via the structures that still remain.

This beach is made up of pebbles and exceptionally dark sand made from crushed grey slate. The slate gives the water in the "Blue Lagoon" its bright deep blue colour. To the north of the beach is a lovely little harbour - an open-cut quarry that is also wheelchair accessible. Be careful: there are strong currents here.

Carreg Samson, a dolmen, lies over Abercastle Bay, near Fishguard. The capstone is approximately 4 1/2 m long and 2.7 m wide. It lies on three of the seven upright support stones. The dolmen was previously covered by a mound of earth or stone. At the beginning of the 20th century, the gaps between the stones were closed so that the dolmen could be used as a sheepfold. The Carreg Samson is a so-called Scheduled Monument.

The steep climb (at least coming from the coast is rewarded with a magnificent view! We could see our entire loop from there. Wonderful!

A quaint Pembrokeshire fishing village

Porthgain is a treat to visit. Once a small commercial harbour used for exporting stone from the nearby quarry, it now offers visitors a great pub, a super cafe/restaurant and excellent art galleries. Great coastal views and interesting industrial ruins complete the package.

You will need to leave your bike in the car park to visit the Blue Lagoon, a short walk from Abereiddy beach. The Blue Lagoon is a breached slate quarry with a brilliant deep blue colour to the water. With a depth of 25 metres, this has been the venue for Red Bull Cliff diving. If you fancy a (cold) dip there are plenty of jump offs to step up too, from 2 metres to about 12 metres - make sure you're confident of your technique before taking on the higher jumps.

Short steep climb from Abercastle, just off the coastal path.

Great walk. We Started at Porthgain car park (N.B. Care should be taken when parking or risk a £70 fine) and climbed the steps at the side of the wharf to the left. Once at the top the going was fairly flat with fantastic views. After the Blue Lagoon, we cut the walk short by taking the footpath to the left by the toilets joining the road into Porthgain about half a mile away. We all had a great time.

A great place to watch a sunset or big seas in the winter 😉
